T-Pain Gets Personal On 'Stoicville,' Talks Advice Column

T-Pain's upcoming album, Stoicville, is all about being open and getting honest. "It was great to get personal with my lyrics," the singer told Fuse in an exclusive interview. "I feel like I needed to talk to somebody and who better to talk to then, you know, seven billion people! I would say that Stoicville is a more personal album. I think I've gotten more stories for myself than anything this time.

"With my previous albums I listened to other people's stories and kind of manifested them into my own happenings and everyday stuff that people can relate to," he continued. "I found that people relate to me as well. I'm thinking 'I'm a weird individual, no one's going to know what the hell I'm talking about when I sing these things!' but as I tell people my story and people get to know me more they tend have relatable things within that."
